I have a 92 escort cos, overtaking in 2nd gear , reved to about 4000rpm then spluttered, now on idle when try to rev a little just wont , just pops and splutters, changed plugs and dizzy , no change, any ideas? Thanks

 

Boost hose?

 

As above, it's just popped a hose I'd say.

 

Anything else?? Not a mechanic so dont no where boost hose is? would it leak?
Thanks

 

It'll be that BIG pipe coming off your turbo!

 

lume plugs? that mean nething as its a big turbo model , 92 escos

 

As above, sounds like the boost hose to me too

 

ok kool, just spoke to mark shead n he sed lume plugs, I dont even no what thy are either , b ut thanks for all your help.

 

Could be any of the hoses from the turbo>intercooler>throttle body, or indeed one of the smaller vacuum pipes.

If you don't know what you're looking for, then time to get someone to look at who does. I bet it is that and not worth looking at anything else.

 

ok cheers, thanks.

 

Mine did that, it was the pipe on the map sensor

 

can I connect the pipe back up? is that a jubealee clip?where is it? cheers.

 

Likely that whatever hose has come off can be simply put back on and re-tightened. It is possible that its a split hose, but not as likely as it just coming off.

 

depends how it's failed mate, mine had cracked and needed a new sensor. My mate managed to glue his back together as a temp fix.

It's under a little bracket on the inlet side of the engine. Pipe goes from inlet to it.

 

ok guys thanks very much for all your help. guna get the bonnet up thanks again
